Falcons .................... 30 Buccaneers ............. 17

-

Rookie Desmond Ridder’s first two career touchdown passes powered Atlanta to a win over playoff-bound Tampa Bay after Tom Brady added to his long list of records.

Brady broke his own NFL record for most completion­s in a season before leaving the game late in the first half. The game was tied 10-10 when Brady was removed. Brady had been 11-0 in his career against Atlanta.

Brady and Tampa Bay’s other healthy regulars started even though the Buccaneers clinched the NFC South title by beating Carolina 30-24 last week and were locked in as the NFC’s No. 4 seed in the playoffs. It’s Brady’s first career season under .500.
